What is my skill?

Explain on this slide what the job of a lighting designer is.

What is the performance about?

Explain the background to the performance.

What were your first ideas? Where did you find these ideas? What did the group tell you they wanted? Use pictures to help explain what you

have to do.

This could take more than one slide.

Lanters you can use Explain the lanterns that you have and what

job they do. Explain what kind of lighting deck you will be

using. Make a scale drawing of the performance

space and the lighting rig. Plan where to put each lantern in the rig. Plan which channel each lantern will be

operated from. Explain what type of desk you have and how

it works. You do not have to rig the lights but you need

to tell someone where you want the lights. This could take more than one slide.

Show your final designs

You need to have 4 different colour combinations.

You need to have at least 8 different cues. Make a drawing of the patch board. Write a plot sheet and which lanterns go on

which channels and which patch. Write the cues on the cue sheet. Write the cues on the script, in order of

performance. This could take more than one slide.

Using a cue sheet

For each cue, make sure that you know the intensity of each fader.

Make sure that the sheet is in your folder. How long does each lighting cue last?

Does it crossfade with another cue? Are there any blackouts? How long should they last?

Explain, for each cue, what colours have you chosen and why. This could

take more than one slide.

Things to remember before your presentation

Add images pictures to this template to make your presentation interesting.

This template should help you plan your presentation but you also need a folder to show the process of your designs. Remember to show this to the teacher/examiner.

Make sure that your performers feel comfortable and confident with the lighting effects you have created.
